Let's make funding mental health a priority
In any given year, one in five people in Canada experiences a mental health problem.
More than 6.7 million people in Canada are living with a mental health problem or illness today. By comparison 2.2 million people in Canada have type 2 diabetes.
If we include families and caregivers, mental health problems and illnesses impact almost everyone in some way.
Having supported people living with mental illness for almost 50 years, we know there is no one single solution.
Mental health is a puzzle that requires many different pieces, and everybody's mental health puzzle is individual, and different.
But, with the right puzzle pieces: supports, housing, and employment opportunities, people living with mental illness can recover.
But we need the right funding in order to solve the mental health puzzle.

“It’s safe, it’s positive, there’s no judgement, which is really big for me.
You can be yourself, you know you’re in a safe place and you know that they have the best intentions for you. I’m learning a whole bunch of new skills, and there’s a way to grow from it."
